The Urban Dao Child - Chapter 523: Release The Beast.

Yue Yun fed a glass of water to Yang Dao that helped the boy wake up properly. His eyes regained their clarity and the lady said, “Do you feel any weakness?”

Yang Dao shook his head and said, “I am hungry.”

Yue Yun had sent everyone else back to their rooms after a few hours. She sat beside the young boy the whole night. Yang Dao sat up from his bed and the lady led him to a small table inside the room. The boy ate a simple breakfast and then sat down on the ground to recover his spiritual cultivation.

The speed was fast, as his control grew the speed of compressing spiritual energy into spiritual essence increased. It took him an hour to reach the peak of his strength and even made a minor breakthrough. When he opened his eyes he found, Yue Yun sitting on a chair with her eyes closed. He asked, “Granny Yun, did anyone from the Olympus family come over?”

Yue Yun nodded and opened her eyes. She said, “Yes, they did come.”

Yang Dao gazed at her in askance, and the elder lady said, “They expect you to visit the Arena of the Olympus Family.”

The boy nodded and stood up. Yang Dao walked to the bathroom inside the room and after a quick wash, he changed his clothes to a white hanfu. His sword was already tied to the side of his waist. Yue Yun did not say anything when he came out and the two walked out of their rooms. Steward Jill stood outside the door and bowed to greet them. She said, “Young Master, the rest of the people are already present at the Arena. Miss Yue Jing sparred with a few people and showcased her skills very aptly.”

Yang Dao nodded and said, “Let us go outside then. No use of wasting time.”

The ladies nodded and the three moved. Jill had already learned the paths inside the Olympus palace and took on the job to guide them. The people moved through the gilded corridors and soon exited the palace. Then they walked along a tiled path and came to a building that looked like a colosseum.

Yang Dao and Yue Yun walked through the ain’t gates which had two stone statues standing at both sides. The statues represented warriors, guarding the entrance. The boy simply gazed at them and did not comment. Yue Yun noticed this oddity in his behavior but she did not comment. It was normal for people to change after they encounter something like the boy faced yesterday.

Jill led them to a flight of stairs and they came to a balcony. Yang Dao saw that a lot of people were sitting surrounding a big ground. At the moment, Yue Jing was sparring with a girl from the Olympus family. She was not looking flustered and dealt with every incoming blow with calmness. She was grinding this person to gain experience and hone her skills.

Yang Dao was looking around and suddenly a haughty young voice sounded behind him, “You finally decided to show up?”

Yang Dao did not turn his head as he was aware that this voice belonged to the young man beside Troy Olympus. The young man said, “Yang Dao, your actions yesterday were enough to earn you a death sentence. Today, I would like to see if you can still maintain that posture of yours. The shame of yesterday will be returned to you a thousand folds.”

With a scoff, the young man turned around but his footsteps came to a pause when he heard a calm voice, “How about we get to test that statement of yours right away?”

The young man turned around and after gazing at Yang Dao he broke out in a peal of laughter. His voice grew louder and louder, attracting the attention of everyone in the viewing area. He said, “You, a ten-year-old, spirit formation kid, will fight with me? Do you know that I am twenty and that I have the strength of a golden core realm? You sure have big balls.”

Yang Dao turned around and said, “Does stating all this mean that you do not want to fight with me? Shall I take that as your tactful refusal? You know, I would not mind this, after all, what happened yesterday was hard for you and your family.”

His words enraged the young man and he scowled, “You sure you want to continue? I will not hold back because you are weaker. It is not my fault that your realm is not enough. Often geniuses have to face a stronger opponent or deadly enemy. Tell me, are you sure you want to call me out like this?”

Yang Dao sighed and said, “Was it not you who wanted to pay back for yesternight? Is it important to check my resolve? This is about you and your pride.”

The young man suddenly wanted to call out on Yang Dao but he heard a soft yet imposing voice, “Aries, come back. Young master Yang has another test before you two can have a battle.”

Aries clenched his jaws and retreated. Then a middle-aged man walked over and said, “Young Master Yang, are you ready for your task?”

The boy nodded and said, “Yes, I am.”

The middle-aged man turned to look at the battle stage below and saw that the two people were standing away from each other. He said, “Young Miss Yue, and Zara, call this spar a tie and walk out. Young Master Yang will be challenging the test prepared by the family for him.”

The people all gazed at the young boy with a heavy shine of anticipation in their eyes. Yang Dao stood there with an indifferent gaze. The reason behind him becoming like this was the dream he had in his sleep. The questions were put to the back of his mind but still, he sensed as if something inside him was changing.

The middle-aged man pointed at the staircase in the front and said, “You can take these steps and descend on the ground. Your test is to face a beast of peak spirit formation realm and defeat it.”

Yang Dao nodded and then he walked forward and descended from the stairs. Yue Jing crossed paths with him when she was climbing. The two exchanged a subtle sideways clap before the boy made his way to the center of the ground. Yang Dao closed his eyes to focus on his state of mind, when the middle-aged man said in a booming sonorous voice, “The trial of the Groom will now begin. To pass, you must defeat one beast, and the higher you can go the better. The trial will stop once you call for it. Are you ready?”

Yang Dao simply nodded and then he sensed the whole arena became quiet. The boy sensed around and found a barrier array was erected to protect the visitors if the beast was to go on a rampage suddenly. A lot of people here were too weak to handle sudden attacks from the beast. This was for their safety.

Receiving the signal the man waved his hand and a cage appeared to be rising on the ground from the underground. Inside the cage, stood a lion. The lion had a white and cerulean-colored mane, while the whole body was a shade of glossy ice blue. The beast looked around and suddenly it let out a deafening roar.

Yang Dao opened his eyes and gazed at the beast inside the cage. He heard the middle-aged man, “Give me a signal when you are ready I will unlock the cage from here. Then you will have to make this beast submit to you.”

The boy nodded and said, “You can unlock it.”

The crowd was in an uproar. They have never seen anyone like him. This child was responding so calmly that they were surprised. The beast in the cage was called the Blizzard Lion, one spirit attack from the beast could make your blood freeze in the viens. Even grown-ups would not take this beast head-on but this boy was fearless.

They all believed that it was because Yang Dao did not know about this beast and was ignorant. Another thing was that a newborn calf was always fearless of the tiger. This was something that made them skeptical of Yang Dao’s strength. The incident of their spirit energy being sealed was limited to only those present inside the banquet hall.

Even Yue Jiren could not explain what happened, Yue Ming had no power to speak about it as his father had told him that talking about it will make things difficult for them both after all they were still inside the Olympus family grounds. The middle-aged man raised his brow and asked, “Are you sure?”

Yang Dao nodded with force and the man looked at Troy, who said, “Third brother, go ahead.. Release the beast.”
